I am soooo crabby...is it bad when you know you are crabby. And i think everyone around me knows to stay 10 feet away from me....LOL I just want to feel better.

iamcrazy · 08-06-2008, 07:26 PM

im on day one and crabby and a huge headach!!

sweetiepie79 · 08-06-2008, 07:47 PM

Its now night 3 of induction and my headache seems to be going away....lets hope...i guess everyone is right....just stick with it. I am still crabby though....my loving children decided they wanted chocolate eclairs...and I pretty much flew off the handle...had to go in my room....then come out and apologize to them...its not their fault. I have to learn to control myself....
anyone know of anything sweet that you can have during induction???

badgerbabe287 · 08-06-2008, 08:43 PM

I usually ate sugar free jello with whipping cream

sweetiepie79 · 08-07-2008, 06:01 AM

ummmm.....that sounds good....even though its only 8 am....lol. I am dying for something sweet. Thanks!

Induction is a big adjustment for your body, so you have to grit your teeth and get through the tricky parts. Believe me, it's worth it, it really is.

Well done on how much you've lost already. Yes, it will mostly be water, but that's because low carb will mobilise all that water high carb made you hold onto. Once that's gone you'll see the fat coming off too as you continue.

sweetiepie79 · 08-07-2008, 07:40 AM

Thanks junkfoodmonkey....I am feeling alot better today....hurray!!!! Honeslty...don't care if its only water....still made me smile when i saw the scale...and the scale was even better to me today...its says I'm down another 2 lbs.....

I always wonder why people go "oh it's only water weight". This is a problem, why?

It's still weight isn't it?

You're doing great, stick with it.

sweetiepie79 · 08-07-2008, 07:52 AM

No problem with "only water"....lol. I will take anything i can get....thanks again!

evern83 · 08-17-2008, 08:37 PM

Congrats...Keep up the good work! The crabbyness and headaches will be going away soon. Just think...soon your kids will have a happy svelte MOM!!!

englandsfinest · 08-25-2008, 11:00 AM

Congratulations on the weight loss. 7 pounds in 4 days is fabulous!!

Just be careful with the jello and cream. I loved them so much because I craved something sweet but they really stalled me. So now I stay away from them!
